Recently, the computer system administrator of Carnegie Mellon University released an online notice: "since the firefly game platform was released, there has been an abnormal situation in the school's network. After analysis, we believe that the two new games on the firefly game platform have caused the network overload... Please pay attention to all the players of" destroyer "and" Warcraft 1 ", Do not play online games, it will bring a lot of traffic to the network, the load of our campus network has been close to the limit. If we don't change, we will cut off the network by force! Again: don't use Internet mode when playing destroyer and Warcraft 1

"Since the release of" destroyer "and" Warcraft 1 ", students have lined up tens of meters outside the computer room to play these two games," the computer room administrator of Stanford University said. This situation has seriously affected the students' learning. Therefore, I decided to write a small program, it will traverse each machine, delete "destroyer" and "Warcraft 1"! "

Intel.

"Report to supervisor, abnormal network found!"

"What's going on?"?! How can the network be abnormal? " The director asked in shock and doubt.

"Report to the director, after some inspection, we have found the cause of abnormal network! According to our tracking, it is because a large number of company employees are playing "destroyer" and "Warcraft 1"!! "

Upon hearing this, the director shakes his hand and drops his cigarette end on the ground. Warcraft 1 is running on his computer at the moment.

"OK, I see. Immediately forbid employees to run" destroyer "and" Warcraft 1 "in the company!!"

"I see, supervisor. I'll give you a notice right away!"

"Well!"

At this time, an ally on the computer screen played out a line: "Robinson, what's the matter with you, let you send troops, you don't cooperate, my soldiers were killed by the computer!"

"I'm really sorry. I was just answering the phone!" The director explained, "I'm going to send troops there now!"

As soon as the general in charge was transferred, a notice prohibiting playing games was sent to Intel's ICQ enterprise group.

At this time, the supervisor saw the other party typing: "paralyzed, the supervisor let people issue a notice, not allowed to play games in the company!"

When the supervisor heard this, he was surprised. Oh, is the other party also in Intel?!

……

EA game company.

"Firefly game company is so powerful, the three-dimensional image and amazing running speed of Destroyer are absolutely awe inspiring《 Warcraft 1 is a real-time game, not a strategy game. And through the deployment of this macro operation, people can more easily experience the pleasure of operation

"Firefly game company will rise this time, and our opponents will be strong again!"

“……”

Nintendo Japan.

"Send someone to contact firefly game company immediately and ask them to transplant" destroyer "and" Warcraft 1 "to our SFC home game console!" Nintendo club president Yamauchi Pu held an emergency meeting, serious expression said!

"Hi

Henry came to the id software game company and said to CEO John kamakh, "John kamakh, what do you think of us developing an editor tool for destroyer so that players can create their own levels?"

After listening to this, John kamakh pondered for a while and said: "Chairman, your idea is very good. It will attract more people to become" destroyer "players and produce a large number of loyal players!"

John Carmichael paused and said excitedly, "Oh, it's wonderful to think of playing the game level that I made myself."

"That's right!" Henry nodded, and immediately said to John Carmack, "this modifiable program, which I call mod, is the abbreviation of modification. It can modify the props, weapons, characters, enemies, things, modes, storylines, etc. in computer games, or add new props and things!" Henry said, pausing again, "but we need to pay special attention to one thing!"

"If mods made by players are popular and produce commercial value, how should the profit be distributed! Therefore, first of all, we should make a formal statement, so as not to fight a lawsuit later because of these commercial disputes! " Henry thought about it and said, "in order to encourage and stimulate many players to make mod! I think it can be written in the statement that if the mods made by players have commercial value, we can sign a contract with them and give them some benefits, eh? For example, 1% of the mod's revenue... "

John? Carmack said with a surprised smile: "Chairman, in this way, I can already imagine that there will be a lot of players participating in the production of mod!"

Henry said with a smile: "ha ha, this is the best, they are equivalent to free labor to help us develop the game, enrich the game content and improve the popularity! If we don't sign the contract, we won't have the money to give them! As for signing or not, it's entirely up to us, and we will only sign mod with obvious commercial value. In the final analysis, we make a lot of money! "

"In addition, if players continue to make mods for a game, the game will last forever and continue to bring profits to the company. But we can save a lot of manpower and resources in this game, so that we can concentrate on building another brand new game

John? After hearing this, Carmack nodded. He can't wait to develop the mod editor. "Chairman, I'm going to develop the mod editor of Destroyer now!"

Henry said with a smile, "well, you go!"

"Good!" John Carmack answered excitedly and went out in a hurry!
